Chapter 167

Major Hoffman, I am very happy to be here. I don't know what the Volkswagen factory can do for you."

   Inside Volkswagen, General Manager Minoba said politely to the major in front of him named Hoffman.

  The reason for him to speak like this is that the major brought an instruction handwritten by the crown prince himself, which asked the Volkswagen plant to cooperate with the major's work. If it weren't for this signed instruction from Edel, Major Hoffman would not have seen the busy general manager.

   "This time the crown prince asked me to come here because I need an armored car, and the Volkswagen factory has the best craftsmanship and technology in Europe."

   Major Hoffman also knew that he had used tiger skins as a banner and used the crown prince's prestige to do things.

   In the face of Major Hoffman's act of using the crown prince's prestige and then flattering Volkswagen, General Manager Minoba saw a lot, but he still disagreed. He still knows about armored vehicles.

   "Yes, our Volkswagen factory has the best technology, so what car does Major Hoffman need as the basis for the armored vehicle?"

   Facing general manager Minoba's inquiry, Major Hoffman knew that now only Volkswagen's Dongfeng trucks met his requirements. However, the armored vehicle modified by Dongfeng truck weighs only 4 tons at most, which does not meet its own requirements. He still wants to ask if Volkswagen has any other models?

   "Mr. Minoba, I don't know if Volkswagen has any cars with a heavier load other than Dongfeng trucks."

   Facing Major Hoffman's inquiry, Minoba did not answer, he called his secretary. "Let Director Tuslid come over."

   After seeing the secretary left at his command, General Manager Minoba turned his head and smiled and told Major Hoffman. "If you came a month earlier, I would tell you that it really didn't exist, but now it has. I will ask Technical Director Tuslid to take you to see it later. This should meet your requirements."

  The new car that Minoba said was that Prince Edel asked them to develop a new car with a load of three to five tons. It only began to be finalized last month and is still being tested in the factory.

   After a while, the technical director Tuslid appeared in front of them, sweaty and wearing an oil-stained shirt. He saw Major Hoffman sitting in the general manager's office, and he asked the general manager Minoba first.

   "What's the matter with the general manager?"

  Minoba pointed to Hoffman and said. "This is Major Hoffman. He is here this time for armored vehicles."

   "Hello, Major Hoffman."

   Tuslid stretched out his hand that still had oil stains.

   "Hello, Director Tuslid."

   Major Hoffman shook Tuslid's oily hand, also expressing his kindness.

   After seeing that they both knew each other, General Manager Minoba told them. "Director Tuslid, take this Major Hoffman to the test site of the new car to see."

   After hearing what the general manager Minoba said, Tuslid spoke to Major Hoffman. "Or let's take a look at this new truck first."

   Major Hoffman also wanted to see the car they called it, so he told Director Tuslid. "Then please lead the way."

   After Major Hoffman finished speaking, he turned his head and thanked the general manager Minoba. "Thank you very much for your support."

   "You don't have to be so polite for the crown prince."

   Glancing at Major Hoffman who walked out of his office, Minoba started to get busy again. As the general manager of Volkswagen, he had too many things to deal with.

   Tuslid took Major Hoffman out of the office, walked through the factory, and introduced him to the new car at the same time.

   "Major Hoffman, this new truck is a masterpiece of our Volkswagen company. It can pull five tons of cargo and travel 160 kilometers with full fuel."

   "It's an amazing masterpiece."

   "Of course, we have been developing this car for four years, and over 200 problems have been overcome. I once slept in the R&D center for three months for this new car."

   Listening to the technical director talking about the history of suffering in front of him, Major Hoffman responded while observing the busy scene of people in the Volkswagen factory. From the opened door of the workshop, we can see that the workers in every workshop here are busy. They focus on their work before the assembly line, just like the precision parts showing the beauty of industry. This made Major Hoffman fascinated, especially in the assembly shop, watching cars being driven out, he felt that this is the true essence of industry.

   "Is it shocking."

   "Yes, this is what real industrialization should be like."

   After answering, Major Hoffman realized that he was a little gagged. "Seeing such a scene, I feel a little emotional."

   Hearing what Major Hoffman said, the technical director Tuslid replied with a sigh. "It's normal, I was the same as you when I first saw it."

   They crossed the factory area and came to a four-story building. Technical director Tuslid pointed to the building and said. "This is our Volkswagen R&D center, but the new car is not here. There is a test track behind this building, and this new truck is tested in it."

   Hearing what Tuslid said, Major Hoffman wanted to take a look at this new car first. "Then let's take a look at this new car."

"of course."

   The two walked around the building and saw a huge test track with various terrains. On the side of the test track, there was a large group of people with test equipment observing the field, a truck with four or six front wheels and a square front. The truck is carrying a large amount of cargo and is ramping up its horsepower to climb a steep slope. The light black smoke from the exhaust pipe shows that the truck has done its best.

   "It's up."

   A technician watched the new test car climb a steep **** and shouted excitedly.

   "It's amazing. I didn't expect this car to climb such a steep **** with six tons of cargo."

   "It's all about the power of this car's 80-horsepower engine, and we need to reward people in the power group."

   "This is also due to the structural design team, allowing this new car to exert such strength."

   It was obviously a member of the power team who said this.

   At this time, Director Tuslid brought Major Hoffman to the group.

   "It's everyone's credit. After this test is successful, I will apply for a large bonus from the general manager Minoba. Everyone has a share, so that we can repay our four years of hard work."

   Director Tuslid walked to the group of testers and began to promise.

   No one is not interested in the bonus, they all cheered loudly.

   Supervisor Tuslid was satisfied with the performance of his subordinates, and he turned to ask about Major Hoffman. "I don't know how you feel about this new car?"

   "This is exactly the car I need, with a high-horsepower engine, a sturdy structure, and enough load."

   Major Hoffman asked after answering. "How much does this car weigh?"

   "4.13 tons."

   A tester casually answered his question.

After hearing this answer, Hoffman calculated in his heart that after reducing the carriage and unnecessary parts, he estimated the weight to be 3.1 tons, and he needed to add about four tons of armor and weapons, and then equipped with personnel and reserves. There is still enough space.

   Thinking of this, Hoffman said to Director Tuslid. "Just choose it. I need you to arrange someone to help me."

   After hearing Major Hoffman's words, Director Tuslid answered immediately. "no problem."

   Then he shouted to the group of testers. "Wang, Bikya, Helk, come here a minute."

   Following the shouts of Director Tuslid, three people came out of the group of testers. Major Hoffman saw a yellow-skinned and dark-eyed yellow race among the three. A little curiously asked this yellow man. "You are japanese"

   It's no wonder that Major Hoffman asked that. Now the most well-known yellow race in Europe is Japan, which has defeated Russia.

   When Wang Chaoqiang faced Major Hoffman's questioning, he did not take it seriously that he had experienced too many such questions. It's just that there is still a glimmer of darkness in his eyes that is hard to detect by outsiders. He speaks fluent Romanian. "My name is Super King, I am Chinese, not Japanese."

   After hearing what the Chinese said, Major Hoffman said with a little embarrassment. "Sorry, I don't know you are Chinese, I hope you won't mind my question just now."

"It's ok."

  At this time, the other two people resolved the embarrassment between them~www.mtlnovel.com~Hello, I am Bikya. "

   Hoffman shook the hand of Bikya and replied. "Nice to meet you, I'm Major Hoffman."

   "I am Herk."

   "Hello, Mr. Herk."

   After seeing that they all know each other, Director Tuslid said to the three of them. "Major Hoffman needs the help of the three of you. He will use our new car as a basis for building an armored vehicle. I hope you can cooperate with him."

   Hearing that the major is going to build an armored car, the three are technicians, and the public will show them the latest European automotive information collected to let them know the latest developments in European cars. Therefore, the three of them are not unfamiliar with armored vehicles. After the three of them got the news, they all replied brightly. "sure no problem."

   Especially Wang Chaoqiang. After the successful development of the new car, he had already made up his mind to return to the country to develop and let the motherland own its own automobile industry. However, now that the armored car is a thing, he decided to stay and wait until the development is completed.

   Seeing the trio of eager expressions, Director Tuslid was still very satisfied. The three of them are now his preferred technicians. Especially that Wang, who has strong learning ability, made him very satisfied. Although there were rumors that Wang planned to return to China for development, he still gave him this opportunity, hoping to retain this smart and easy-to-learn technology.

   Then, at the request of Major Hoffman, the three people began to take ordinary workers to build an armored car belonging to Romania based on this new car.
